Description
You’re listening to the bubble, the podcast turning beer inside out. This week we talk to Colin Gilhespy, managing director of beer importer Cave Direct and Rob's boss. As one of the first importers of Belgian beer, and such a huge champion of it that Belgium gave him a MEDAL, Colin is probably the most influential man in beer that you haven't heard of. And we're only partly saying that because he's Rob's boss. We talk about the beer scene before craft beer – including why Cantillon used to attached sugar packets to their bottles and how Delirium has spread around the world – before getting into what happens from here.DISCLOSURE: Obviously Colin's company sponsors our podcast so you can take it all with a grain of salt (or rather sugar) if you want. Brought to you by the team behind the Craft Beer Channel and sponsored by Beer Merchants, The Bubble takes an irreverent look at beer from the outside, inviting new people to give us their perspective on the world we're all obsessed with.
